Ukrainians Warned of Severe Fire Hazard from July 6 to 8: Important Safety Recommendations and Risks
The territory of Ukraine is being put on alert due to an impending high fire danger expected from July 6 to July 8. According to the Ukrainian Hydrometeorological Center, this period will pose an especially heightened risk of large-scale fires across the country. The highest danger is forecasted throughout most of Ukraine, excluding Kharkiv and Zaporizhzhia regions during July 6-7, as well as Chernihiv, Sumy, Poltava, and Dnipropetrovsk regions, where the threat of wildfires will significantly increase due to high temperatures and dry weather. Experts emphasize that during this critical timeframe, citizens must exercise utmost caution and strictly adhere to fire safety rules to prevent tragic incidents. It is crucial to avoid careless handling of open flames, refrain from leaving matches, lighters, or sparks unattended, and steer clear of lighting campfires in natural environments. Authorities urge all residents to remain responsible and prepared for potential emergency situations to prevent large-scale wildfires and protect lives and property.
